For a given surface the Gauss's law is stated as`oint vecE.dvecA=0`. From this we can conclude that

A

E is necessarily zero on the surface

B

E is perpendicular to the surface at every point.

C

The total flux through the surface is zero

D

The flux is only going out ot the surface

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For `phiE.ds=0,` the electric field E is necessary zero on the surface.
